GARCHOMP

 

This is another Pokemon that was not on any of my “To Do” list given to me by either family or an Etsy customer.  At first, I was worried that Garchomp was going to be difficult.  Of course, like most, after taking some time to look at it, it was not difficult at all.  This pattern includes the color lists for both Garchomp and Shiny Garchomp.
